Taking care of Government paperwork for most of the day except for a lunch at Nectar with Renata and Lee.

Renata, Lee and I dine at Tiestos. The bring out all these antipasto like dishes to put on bread. This is followed by the main dishes which are complimented by a bunch of side dishes. Even though I had a light lunch there is no room left to order dessert.

Lee, Renata and I take a taxi to Loja. By 8 am we are the road in the Elite Tours van bound for Cuenca.

At a washroom break halfway to Cuenca we walk into the restaurant and find Bo and Frank sitting at one of the tables. We say hello and are on our way a few minutes later.

I make my way to my room near the square.

With my shoes freshly polished I head over to Nectar. Once again there is Bo and Frank. I join them and Renata and Lee arrive a few minutes later.

Renata, Lee and I walk around Cuenca for a while and wind up at the Thai restaurant after discovering Govinda is closed on Tuesdays. For the thrid time there are Bo and Frank. We all eat dinner together before heading our separate ways.
